To strengthen HP's ability to serve the fast-growing Chinese market and accelerate economic development in West China, HP and China's Chongqing Municipality have announced plans for an advanced manufacturing complex.
According to the terms of a memorandum of understanding with the Chongqing Municipality, the new plant will make notebook and desktop PCs for customers in the world's most populous country. The company plans to operate a 20,000m² facility in Chongqing. Manufacturing operations are expected to begin in 2010. When in full operation, the HP-managed plant is expected to have the capacity to meet market demand in Chongqing as well as other parts of China across government, public and retail sectors.
This news follows a joint announcement related to an HP Global Call Center to provide sales-related support for HP products and services and the development of an information-sharing platform for Chongqing's University town that will help reduce redundant IT investments by tertiary institutions.
